.net (magazine)

.net is a monthly Internet magazine and website published in the UK by Future Publishing. Founded in 1994, .net magazine is published every four weeks (13 issues per year). The magazine is aimed at professional and amateur web designers, and a significant proportion of its readers are full-time web developers. In 2011 it also launched as a digital edition for tablet computers.

The front cover features artwork from different graphic designers. Digital art and designers are also catered for in the magazine, with a dedicated section called /showcase.

.net was previously sold under the name Web Builder in the USA. In December 2006, it took on the name of Practical Web Design in the wake of that particular publication's closure in the UK.

Artwork is still a key part of the magazine, and it features various web designers' work in a dedicated section each issue.
