The year 2022 is nearly over. Time to tell you I very much appreciate that you all visiting my blog. Some do already since the start in 1998 when it was a simple website, others have discovered it more recently. In October 2023 NettyRoyal (or Netty’s Royalty Blog as it was called in the first […]
Already for a while I have been thinking how I could monetize my blog. In October 2023 my website will celebrate its 25th anniversary, which seems to be almost unbelievable. In all these years I have never asked for money and made it my goal to inform people better about known and unknown royal and […]
The next few weeks will see a huge amount of articles about royal castles and exhibitions that I visited in the past week. I have to say I am planning to do the exhibitions that will already end in August first. But which reports are you looking forward to most?
Today I have been busy changing the design of the NettyRoyal blog. The idea I had a few years to have a kind of newspaper like website was nice, but it was overall a bit too busy. Recently I found this new design, by the same theme builder, Mystery Themes. Even if pink isn’t exacly […]

Another Covid-19 year has passed. While 2021 wasn’t as desastrous as 2020, it still wasn’t normal.

That are just the visitors for this blog, as I know the original website had also a lot of visitors, but I lost track as I changed providers, software and statistics on the […]

Recently I have been thinking about creating a newsletter for NettyRoyal. Oldfashioned, a friend of mine with computer knowledge commented. On the other hand one can subscribe to the newsletters of History of Royal Women and (since recently) The Court Jeweller. So there seems to be a market for it. Yesterday, with a bit of […]
The year 2020 hasn’t been as good as we’d all hoped for. No big royal events, no big travels. There were however several births, christenings, engagements and weddings, and unfortunately also a few deaths. Most sensational things that happened in the past year must surely have been the exit of the Duke and Duchess of […]
