Google AdSense has been around for years. And even though there's not as much buzz about it as there has been in years past it's still one of the easiest and most effective ways to monetize your blog.

Of course it depends on your market and what other monetization options are available to you.

For example if you are in a tech savvy market your readers may be less likely to click on AdSense ads than non-tech savvy readers.

You may have access to excellent affiliate programs in your niche that convert and pay well. In that case it makes more sense to promote those affiliate offers and make a higher commission, or even a re-occurring commission, than it does to give away traffic to a lower paying AdSense click.

It may be that a combination of affiliate ads and AdSense works best to monetize your blog.

The best way to find out what works for you in your niche is to do some research and testing.
