If you're just wanting to know how to find chord positions then just locate the notes that make a certain chord. We'll use the chord you've supplied us with and say C, E, and G. Find each one of those notes and play them together and you've got yourself a Cmaj chord. It doesn't matter what order you play them in, where on the neck or anything. Just so long as those 3 notes are the ones playing you're using the Cmaj chord. Some examples.
This is a common form for the Cmaj chord.
E:-0
B:-1
G:-0
D:-2
A:-3
E:--
But this is a variation of that same chord.
E:-8
B:-8
G:-9
D:-10
A:-10
E:-8
Those are the same chords because all the notes that make the Cmaj (C, E, and G) chord all happen to fall on those frets. Make sense?
