A:
It will no doubt vary from site to site, but I would put it before the navigation.
That way a screen reader can read out 'Skip to content' before it has to go through the main navigation list and say things like 'About Us. Links. Contact Us.' etc

A:
Shouldn't place it at all -- place your content first in the HTML file, and put navigation/spammy stuff afterwards.
(I know a lot of places find this difficult in practice, but if you're going for screen reader/text-only browser support, you might as well go all the way)

Place 1, you can see in sample site. for visibility, it depends on your requirement. It is more useful in working on place 1 than 2 and 3.

A:
'Skip to content' and 'Skip to menu' links should be placed before any other link or text. It doesn't matter if there are 15 opening div before them.
