Honestly, if your goal is to monetize a blog, I think a technical/programming blog is not best suited for that. You could try newsletters with affiliate links or paid courses, but the market for that is pretty saturated, and there are plenty of equally good courses and content available for free. Alternatively, you might consider Google Ads or native advertisements, but YMMV depending on traffic and your audience.
Personally, technical blogs that are loaded with ads tend to make me look elsewhere and are a huge turnoff. I am not sure what others think about this, however.
My blog is intended to be a repository of technical learnings and lessons, as well as a place for future me to reference as-needed. If I was interested in monetizing a blog, I would probably choose a more mainstream topic.
