Lothian Life is an online magazine covering Edinburgh and the Lothians, published by Pages Editorial & Publishing Services, owned and edited by Susan Coon. It was based on West Lothian Life, which was launched as a quarterly print publication in 1995 and in 2003, it expanded to cover Edinburgh and the Lothians.

In 2006, the print operation was replaced by a wholly web based magazine. If not the first magazine to go entirely online it was certainly one of the first and used the content management system Wordpress.

All information on Lothian Life Web Magazine is offered free, with revenue coming through visible advertising or commission on sales through partnerships such as affiliate marketing. Writers of unique articles are paid on a per view basis.
