Digital Marketing Expert Witnesses
What is a digital marketing expert witness?
Digital marketing expert witness candidates typically have areas of expertise in social media, advertising, search engine optimization (SEO), ecommerce, online reputation management, internet technology, and/or consumer behavior. In high profile cases, or litigation involving a significant financial stake, a law firm may require an online marketing specialist with prior expert witness testimony experience.
What types of cases require a digital marketing expert witness?
Digital marketing (also known as online marketing, internet advertising, digital advertising or web advertising), is a dynamic process, leveraging website(s), search engines, blogs, social media (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn), PPC advertising (pay-per-click), video, email and similar channels to reach customers. A successful digital marketing strategy generally involves a combination of tactics, including online advertising, search engine optimization and marketing, domain names, social media marketing and content creation.
