There is no difference - neither the order of attributes nor the omitted 
quotes for the name attribute matter (in this case). 
Usually you have to quote the attribute value - the quotes can only be 
omitted in some special cases like here (only letters).

Nothing at all - and for some major engines even less than that, because 
they ignore the 'keywords' meta element completely.

Even if there is no difference, many people (and the HTML spec) consider it 
good practice to always use quotes - at least you don't have to remember 
which characters are allowed in the attribute value when you omit the 
quotes.
