What recognition did William Shakespeare get for his work?

You mean, I suppose, during his lifetime. Shakespeare was well-known for his writing during his lifetime. One of the best examples of this is in Francis Meres's book Palladis Tamia in 1597, in which he listed all of the best writers in England at that time, and mentioned Shakespeare as a playwright, and as a composer of sonnets and epic poems. One reason we know that Shakespeare made a name for himself was that although the earliest of his plays were published anonymously, after a while the publishers thought it would sell more copies if the plays were attributed to Shakespeare. Later, they started adding Shakespeare's name to stuff that he hadn't written, which shows that his name was a real selling point. Otherwise why try to sell fake Shakespeare plays and poems?

Was William Shakespeare's plays fake?

Depends what you mean by fake. They are all real plays; they can be and are actually performed. They are not closet plays to be read and not performed. Are the stories in the plays true stories? Some of them are based on historical fact--the histories, Macbeth, and the Roman plays. If you mean by "fake" that the stories are not stories about Shakespeare's personal life, then indeed they are completely unrelated to his personal life. It is a matter of great frustration to many people that this is so, but it is certainly so. He did not write his plays because his son died, because he had a toothache or because Anne wanted a new dress; he wrote them around good stories that he had heard or read and which he thought would sell. Period.
