Depends on where/why it pops.
If you get holes along the rim side, there's probably something with your rim and/or rim strip. Check that all spoke nipples are fully covered and that there aren't any burrs or sharp corners/edges.
If you get holes on the side facing the tire it's most probably something coming through the tire and poking a hole in the tube. You can get tire liners, extra thick tubes, or puncture-protected tires to reduce the occurrences.
If it's sorta to the side, it might be snake bite, pinch flats. If using too low pressure, the tube can be pinched between rim and ride surface, causing a flat.
If you're using tools when mounting the tire, you might be pinching the tube against the rim, damaging it.
If it's a split, you might be getting the tube caught between the bead of the tire and the rim on installation, causing it to split on inflation.
