If you want your site searchable thru google and other search engines I believe you need to include the following meta tags in your ASPX/HTML pages:
FWIW, you don't *need* to include any of these. Some are useful, some not, but none are required to be indexed.
The first two are the only really worthwhile ones. Most SEs use these, but compare them to the text on your page, so don't just stuff them with irrelevant keywords.
<meta name="description" content="?"> <meta name="keywords" content="?">
The next is used to tell SEs which pages on your site they should *not* visit. If you want the whole of your site to be indexed, don't use the this tag. Also many SEs ignore this tag anyway.
<meta name="robots" content="index,follow">
The rest of these are largely useless. They are very unlikely to be used by the SEs.
<meta name="author" content="?"> <meta name="copyright" content="?"> <meta name="page-topic" content="?"> <meta name="audience" content="All">
And you also need to register your site with all the search engines, unless you pay for massive submissions...
You don't need to register. If there are links to your site, the SEs will find it. There are claims that Google gives a higher rating to sites it finds on its own, rather than ones submitted. As with all Google-lore, this is unsubstantiated, so take it with a heavy pinch of salt.

According to Google, there is no connection between Adsense and Google's indexing of your site. Therefore, the answer to this is "no."
Also, unless your site gets a lot of traffic, and a lot of people click on the ads you put there, it will make you no money. How often do YOU click on an ad in a web page? I do about once a year, if that. What this program does is to make money for Google, and a very few very large, high-traffic web sites.
There ARE ways to make money from a web site. A web site's biggest advantage is that it is an advertisement for whatever you put in it. So, for example, if you offer a service, you are advertising your service through your web site. If you sell products, your web site can have a shopping cart program that enables people to easily buy the products you sell.
Of course, all the ways you can make money with a web site are dependent upon traffic. And indexing with Google, as well as the many smaller Search Engines out there, as Robbe said, is pretty much automatic. Ranking depends upon how many links your web site is connected to, how many sites link TO your web site, and the amount of usage your web site receives. You can also PAY Google to rank your site higher, or buy advertising from Google, which DOES get a lot of traffic..
In other words, there are no shortcuts to making money with a web site, despite what you may have heard on TV or read in a SPAM email. If you want to draw traffic to your web site, your best bet is to put plenty of information on it that people are looking for, keep the information fresh, and work very hard for a long time.
