A doctype is a header, so it should be placed at the top of the webpage. When writing HTML for a website, it should be placed directly above the tag.

Five difference between website and webpage?

A website is a collection of webpages and thus each have different characteristics. Your website will have a domain name, which you must formally register with an ICANN accredited registrar and which will be unique on the web. Webpages on the other hand are the documents which make up a website and you are free to name the pages as you like and to put whatever content you like in them. Webpages should conform to one of the standards such as HTML 4.01 or XHTML 1.1. Every webpage should start with a Doctype declaration which tells browsers and search engines what type of markup you have used so that it can be displayed and crawled better. Every webpage should contain a section called the head (and which is not normally visible in your browser) and another called the body which is where you put the content you want visble in browsers. Every webpage should contain a Page Title in the head section.
