From the acknowledgement of the structural gender gaps in science and technology, several civil organizations, hackerspaces and women's associations gained ground, especially through the presence and activism in digital social networks, particularly Twitter. This article analyzes the strategies for making women visible in technologies, through the study of the profiles on the Twitter platform of three cyberfeminist organizations or femhackerspaces. The methodological approach was the critical discourse analysis. The main findings indicate that the most used strategy is the visibility, through examples of successful women in the areas of science and technology and initiatives, courses or proposals for feminist digital inclusion. There is also a construction of community networks and spaces that encourage the participation of women in various spaces and create a sense of belonging. These organizations carry out different educational actions through network activities. Finally, it was demonstrated that all three organizations are inspired by postulates of cyberfeminist theories, although with specific characteristics in each case.

Palabras clave : Cyberfeminism; Digital technologies; Twitter.
