Correct dish azimuth varies by satellite. Get the name of the satellite whose signals you want to receive, and check the dishpointer Website for azimuth.

If you have a Dish Network satellite dish, it depends on what part of the country you live in. If you live in the East part of the country, position your dish to the southwest direction. IF you live in the West part of the country, position your dish to the southeast direction. That's the typical rule of thumbs.

The satellite dish should remain fixed in the same position. The directions varies according to coordinates, location of where you live, and the weather of the particular place you live. Professional crews should be utilized to install these.

It depends on what the maker of the dish says. A technician setting up your dish should properly align it. If you have problems later, they'll fix it.
