An amplifier will do the least damage to your hard won signal if it is placed right at the antenna.
I say damage because all amplifiers add some noise and distortion to the signals as they increase the signal level. The further from the antenna you go, the lower the signal level is. That means that the noise produced in the amplifier will be stronger relative to the desired signal.
All that to say, It's better to place an amplifier ahead of the splitter than at the receiver.
When you choose an amplifier, be careful to select one that will not be overloaded by the signals fed into it.
