There are many other ways to make money with a blog getting lot of traffic. Like you can sell guest posts. They might not be having ads on the site because they might have got banned from platforms like adsense.
when I see big sites with zero ads, I don’t think they’re missing out - I actually think it’s smart. If it were my site, I’d also skip the annoying banners and focus on cleaner ways to earn, like affiliate links, sponsors, or selling my own stuff. Ads can slow everything down and make the page look cheap, so sometimes keeping things ad-free just builds more trust and keeps people coming back. In the long run, that can pay off way better than a bunch of flashing banners

Some big websites prefer to keep their user experience better in place of making money. They can do it other ways too. So maybe this is the reason.

Many big sites focus on branding, trust, or user experience rather than direct revenue from ads, earning instead through subscriptions, products, partnerships, or long-term SEO value.

Have you checked if they have an email list?

Many big sites make money through other channels like products, subscriptions, sponsorships, affiliates, or lead generation, ads can hurt user experience and brand image, when traffic and authority are strong they often earn more without display ads.
