You want to be looking for folders like textures and meshes, and files that end in. Same thing if your unpacked mod has a Data folder-you don't want to put that in your Data folder (which would end up with a Data/Data/ layout that doesn't work), you want to put what's inside it in your Data folder. If you have a folder named like the mod, don't put that folder in your Data folder-you want to put the contents in your Data folder. If they're not clear about what files to put there, you have to look a bit closer at the mod. If they tell you to put files in "your Data folder", they mean there.

If there are installation problems, they'll want to know about it and it's more likely to be fixed there than by asking here. If you're experiencing problems with it, consider reporting the problem so that the coders and other users on the official beta feedback forum can read about it and any bugs can be fixed. First things first before I get to the advice: Nexus Mod Manager is beta software.
