Here again is used as a modifier.
It is best to place a modifier just before the word or phrase it modifies.

Now compare it with this example:
I will see him again tomorrow.
Here again is used as an adverb, hence it goes AFTER the verb.

There are finer nuances of grammar which even scholars debate upon. So you don't need to worry.
