Some think he wrote for Queen Elizabeth The First. However, he did not dedicate any plays to her, and in fact wrote most of his plays after her death. Most of the plays were written with the primary intention of performing them in the public playhouse, not at court. Shakespeare had, for the most part, a much broader audience in mind than just the Queen and her courtiers. (an exception may be Love's Labour's Lost which is replete with erudite humour and artificial wordplay which would be more appreciated in court). Also, his motive was not to please the Queen (although it would be dangerous to displease her), but rather to sell lots of tickets and make lots of money, which he did.
William Shakespeare wrote for contributers of his time, where there was money, Shakespeare went. His starting career was in shambles but aristocrats have paid him to write plays for them and such, but in retrospect, writers only write FOR themselves.
Shakespeare wrote all of his plays for his audience. In most cases this meant everybody, from the workers and apprentices who bought penny tickets and went to see the blood and to hear the dirty jokes, to middle-class people who liked the romance, to sophisticated types who liked the complicated wordplay and social comment.
They were written for this broad audience because in this way you not only could sell all kinds of different people tickets to the play, but you could use the same play over and over at the public playhouses, at private performances or at court.
One of Shakespeare's plays that does not seem to have been written for as broad an audience is Love's Labour's Lost. It is full of arcane wordplay, satire and classical allusions. It was probably written for a court event.
Shakespeare wrote plays and poetry. The plays were for the most part intended to be played in the public theatres, to which anyone in London could and did attend. It was the television of its day. Shakespeare therefore wrote them in the same way a writer for a television show would--with a bit of something for everyone. His long poems were also written for sale to the general public, and were therefore intended for the average person. His intention when writing the sonnets is less clear. He may have written some or all of them without intending to have them published at all, and to be read only by a specific person.
Shakespeare wrote his plays with a target or focus of a certain social stratum not for the common man. In those days dramatists even poets were patronized by kings and emperors and dramas were staged and poems were read to entertain.
All kinds of people. Every possible kind of person. There are lots of kings and nobles (especially in the history plays) and also shepherds, cobblers, prostitutes, theives and con men. There are really good men like Duke Senior and really bad ones like Iago, really good women like Paulina and really bad ones like Goneril. There are really young people like Prince Arthur and really old ones like the Countess Rousillion. There are very rich people like Timon of Athens and also very poor ones, like Edgar after he is disguised as Poor Tom.
You name it, you can find it in Shakespeare.
They had diffrent leavels of income and the groundling paid 1 penny (almost an etire days wage) to stand in front of the stage and rich people paid half a crown for a seat.
Except to the extent that Shakespeare knew that he couldn't write anything which might criticize the monarch, since people who wrote those kinds of things went to jail, the king and queen had no influence on Shakespeare's writing.
Mainly he wrote tragedies, but he also wrote comedies.
No, Shakespeare wrote plays. Other people decided to sort them into genres.
Curiously, this is a question which is almost impossible to answer. What people say in plays tells us about the characters, not about the authors. Shakespeare did not write the kinds of works in which he bared his soul. What is more, it was very dangerous in Shakespeare's time to hold opinions which did not coincide with the official line, so if he held any such opinions he would not dare to express them.
Shakespeare did not write subjects, he wrote plays and poetry. Those plays and poems address all kinds of different subjects, far more than you could list exhaustively.

He wrote it for the people, he wanted them to be impressed of his work?
People had the usual kinds of jobs: providing food, shelter, clothing and entertainment. There were civil servants and teachers and criminals and prostitutes. Although the specific form of the jobs change with technology (there weren't any computer programmers then and there aren't any fletchers now) the kinds of jobs people had then are pretty much the jobs people have now. Shakespeare's father made gloves and leather goods. A person nowadays might live in a factory that does the same thing. Shakespeare wrote plays for large open-air theatres. Today people write plays for films.

Is this a question? William Shakespeare did write his plays.
Shakespeare became a write when he began to write plays and tragedies. People liked them so much, they began to act out and preform his pieces. It all became history after that.
