Jason McDonald Consulting, a consulting agency offering search engine optimization and Google Ads services, has announced new content focused on social media and its expert witness services. The update combines Dr. Jason McDonald's experience as a social media instructor with his work as a social media expert witness, and arrives as artificial intelligence is altering how social media operates and how disputes over online conduct are litigated.
The new resources are designed to help both marketers and attorneys understand the evolving social media landscape. For marketers, the content explains how artificial intelligence is changing social media strategy and output. For attorneys, it clarifies the role of a social media expert in assessing the technical impact of social media in legal disputes. As social media remains critical for businesses of all sizes—from a plumber posting TikToks to a restaurant relying on Instagram and Facebook reviews—conflicts over trademark infringement, misleading advertising, and counterproductive content have become more common. These cases often involve complicated technical processes that are difficult to explain to a judge or jury, making expert testimony increasingly valuable.
Dr. McDonald will also teach a new course at Stanford Continuing Studies in January 2027. The course is a digital marketing survey that focuses heavily on social media but also incorporates artificial intelligence. In a statement, Dr. McDonald explained the challenge: "Social media remains very important, even as artificial intelligence rearranges the landscape. Among the things that I'm wrestling with as an instructor and as a writer of books is how to use artificial intelligence in social media without hurting the quality of the social media output."

The implications of this announcement extend beyond marketing.

His background includes a Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley, and authorship of several top-selling books on digital marketing, including the SEO Workbook, Social Media Marketing Workbook, and Google Ads Workbook.
