How AdSense works?

What AdSense offer is the easiest way for a blogger or a publisher to get started with online monetization.
Once you have an approved account from Google AdSense, all you need to do is, add a few lines of codes (use AdSense WordPress plugins) or by manually inserting, and Google AdSense will start showing ads based on different criteria.

After this, as a blogger, all you need to focus is on driving more traffic to your blog and you will start earning more.  When a visitor visiting your website will click on ads shown by AdSense, you will start making money. In some scenario, Google pays you when visitors even see the ads. Overall, it makes your life easier as now your focus is only on writing quality content and driving targeted traffic.
AdSense is a contextual ad network, which means that ads will be displayed according to your content.  Another way AdSense shows ads is by using the cookie method. Based on user search history, they display targeted ads which convert better. In short, AdSense makes sure that readers will see targeted ads, and thus you will get more clicks and higher payouts than you will with any other ad network.

AdSense means recognition:

AdSense is one of the most highly rated and recognized advertisement programs available. However, AdSense does not approve all types of blogs, and if you are one of the lucky once to have an AdSense account, that means you are doing something right.

One AdSense account for all sites :

With most ad networks, you need to add all of your sites manually, and upon approval of each individual site, you can place ads on that site. With AdSense, however, once you have an approved AdSense account, you can put ads on any website which complies with the AdSense terms of service.
