Taringa! (stylized in all-caps as TARINGA![1]) was an Argentine-based social networking site geared toward Hispanophone users.
Taringa! had a 27 million registered user base, according with Taringa's own metrics,[2] who create and share thousands of daily posts on general interest topics such as life hacks, tutorials, recipes, reviews, and art.
The platform had a presence in every country in the Spanish-speaking world – its main markets were Argentina, Spain, Colombia, and Chile. According to comScore statistics in 2013,[3] it was the fourth most popular Latin American Social Network and the second one in traffic only after Facebook,[4] since then the site's traffic has dramatically declined, dropping up to the 3898th place in the Alexa Ranking on December 30, 2020.[5]
