How do you hang curtains properly?

The last person who lived here clearly never bothered to hang curtains properly. I'd rather not call someone out if it's a ten minute job. How do you do it?

Rod about 10-15cm above the window frame and extending 15-20cm past each side, so open curtains don't cover the glass. Hanging it higher than the frame makes the window and ceiling look taller too. Use a level and a pencil mark for each bracket, and wall anchors unless you're screwing into a stud.
