Google Adsense is an affiliate marketing program. In Google Adsense, Google act as intermediary between the affiliates and merchants. The merchant or the advertisers, simply register with Google and to provide text ads related to their products. These ads, which are actually a link to the advertiser's site, then appear on Google searches as well as web sites owned affiliates, or by those webmasters who have registered with Google Adsense program.
In Google Adsense, all the webmaster has to do is put a code on your website and Google does the rest. The ads that Google would place on your site would generally be relevant to the content of your site. This would benefit both you and the advertiser, and that visitors to your site more or less be actually interested with the products advertised.
