    • Hello Kajal 🙂

      Yes, I Do Agree With You. 🙂

      Google AdSense Is One Of The Best Ways To Make Money Online.
      Its A Dream Of Every Blogger & Publisher To Have A Google AdSense Account Approved.

    • Hello Mamta Ma?am 🙂

      Thanks For Stopping By.

      It?s Really Great To Hear That Your Google AdSense Account Is Already Approved. 🙂
      But Yes, It?s Too Difficult To Get The Google AdSense Account Approved.

      It Depends On Various Factors Such As Site Niche, Quality Of Content, Traffic & Many More Other Factors.

      Well,
      About The Method Or How Does Google AdSense Work,
      It?s All About ?Keywords?.

      1. The Advertisers Choose The Keywords Which They Would Like To Advertise On.
      2. Then, The Google AdSense Spiders/Robots Would Try To Match The Keywords With The Search Keyword Or The Keyword(s) From Site.
      3. The Google AdSense Spiders/Robots Will Then Crawl Or Check The Site, If The Keyword Matches With The Advertiser?s Keyword Or Not.
      4. If The Keyword On Site Matches With The Keyword From The Advertiser, Then Their Ads Would Be Displayed On The Site As Per Their Keyword(s).

      I Hope, This Helped You Out To Understand Google AdSense Much More Better. 🙂

      I?ll Be Also Coming Up With A Detailed Post/Article About This Topic Soon.

      Have A Great Day. 🙂
