As with all software, make sure you are getting your mods from a reputable source. For most mods these days that means CurseForge, but for Forge itself you should only download from http://files.minecraftforge.net. Also if you are new please check out the StopModReposts project.

 

As for installing mods, any modern mod should require only dropping its Jar file into the mods folder Forge creates inside your .minecraft folder, the location of which depends on your Operating System, this page of the Minecraft wiki describes the .minecraft folder and where to find it on each OS.

 

Note: In general, if a mod requires an installer I do NOT recommend running that installer, I cannot speak for every mod but at this time I know of only two mods I trust that come as installers, Forge itself being one of them.

This is my Forum Signature, I am currently attempting to transform it into a small guide for fixing easier issues using spoiler blocks to keep things tidy.

 

As the most common issue I feel I should put this outside the main bulk:

The only official source for Forge is https://files.minecraftforge.net, and the only site I trust for getting mods is CurseForge.

If you use any site other than these, please take a look at the StopModReposts project and install their browser extension, I would also advise running a virus scan.

 

For players asking for assistance with Forge please expand the spoiler below and read the appropriate section(s) in its/their entirety.
