Royal Houses section updated

It had been a while since I updated the Royal Houses section. With the latest changes of throne in Denmark and Malaysia, it was about time to do something about it. It turned out most pages hadn’t been updated since 2020. I only didn’t have a look at the links at the bottom. Lately I […]

25 years NettyRoyal

When I started my website 25 years ago, on 26 October 1998, I could never have imagined the site still existing so many years later. But here we are in 2023 and NettyRoyal – or Netty’s Royalty Blog as it was known at first – is still there, even if there have been quite a […]

New website: On Tour with NettyRoyal

As I recently announced, I was working on a new website. I finally published On Tour with NettyRoyal online on 14 February 2023. It will not replace this website, but will contain a lot of my royal travelling reports, news about royal palaces, books about royal palaces and castles, activities and exhibitions, visits of royals […]

Hell of a week

Few posts this year on the blog thus far, which has several reasons.

Hell broke loose. Thousands and thousands of articles were […]

The year 2022 of NettyRoyal

Much less visitors for NettyRoyal in 2022 than in 2021. I suppose it is either because I posted less regularly, or people spent much less time online. Here is the (somewhat surprising) top 10 of posts in 2022: Instagram statistics for 2022: There are so many recent Christmas cards among the best liked posts, that […]

Monetizing NettyRoyal

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 […]

Polls: Denmark reports

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?

A new blog design

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 […]

The year 2021 of NettyRoyal

Another Covid-19 year has passed. While 2021 wasn’t as desastrous as 2020, it still wasn’t normal. For months everything seemed to be quite OK, and one could travel, there were weddings, and even a few glamorous state visits. But unfortunately in November it all started to get worse again and several events everybody was looking […]
