It depends on the blog and subject matter.
I have some blogs which are doing well with zero ads and only affiliate offers related to the subject of the post.
Then I have a video review blog, action movies, which I was using AdSense on and earning a few bucks a day, switched to dating and semi-adult offers and now it's doing $20 - $30 a day.
Other ideas are making ebooks out of your content and selling those via the blog, you'd be surprised how easy it is to get that to work. For example using the old dog training subject - you have heaps of content videos and text on dog training. Those posts get people interested in dog training but some of those people want to become dog training ninja experts and those people will buy your ultimate guide to dog training ebook as quickly as they can check out with Paypal. You can make your ultimate dog training guide ebook simply by repurposing existing content and then adding some stuff only available to the ebook.
Rule #1: Provide Value to people.
Rule #2: Refer to rule #1
As I said though the different methods you can use depends on your niche. In my experience, unless it's lonely guys looking for distractions (as the ad performance on my action movie review sites reflects) or highly relevant affiliate offers or ads then for the most part people don't click on ads. Adsense is less and less a money earner these days even on fairly exclusive, good traffic content.
