Abstract
El propósito de este artículo es contribuir al estudio de las redes sociales como espacio de divulgación de la profesión y la disciplina del Trabajo Social. A partir de análisis de contenido de los diez perfiles profesionales con más seguidores en Instagram y reconocidos dentro del fenómeno microinfluencer en la geografía española, se describen los rasgos más característicos de la identidad digital, el contenido audiovisual y las concepciones epistemológicas y éticas que se identifican y se difunden del Trabajo Social. Si bien es una tarea urgente establecer puentes y complicidades entre la comunicación y el Trabajo Social para favorecer la divulgación del área de conocimiento y la experiencia profesional, no hay que obviar los riesgos y consecuencias derivadas de estas prácticas digitales. Los modos de producción no son ajenos al contexto neoliberal y mercantil actual, donde lo social se ha convertido en espacio de negocio y, en ocasiones, los objetivos profesionales quedan más supeditados a los medios que al fin.

From the content analysis of the ten professional profiles with more followers on Instagram and recognized within the microinfluencer phenomenon in the Spanish geography, the most characteristic features of digital identity, audiovisual content, and epistemological and ethical conceptions that are identified and disseminated of social work are described. Although it is an urgent task to establish bridges and complicities between communication and social work to favor the dissemination of the area of knowledge and professional experience, the risks and consequences derived from these digital practices should not be ignored. The modes of production are not alien to the current neoliberal and mercantile context, where the social has become a business space and, sometimes, professional objectives are more subordinated to the means than to the end
