Let's say you provide a service to someone. Customer is not satisfied with your service. You dispute customers claim and have ample documentation to back up your claim. Customer makes demand and gives you a time frame for accepting his demands. If you do not he will blast you and your interest on social media. This service provided is worth tousands.

As long as your paperwork is legit you could lawyer up and sue for defamation, slander/libel or at the very least get a judge to grant a cease and desist order.
Extortion IMO seems to mainly involve shaking someone or a business down for money by offering "protection" or threats of violence.

If you are in La., here is the state statute:
§66. Extortion
Extortion is the communication of threats to another with the intention thereby to obtain anything of value or any acquittance, advantage, or immunity of any description. The following kinds of threats shall be sufficient to constitute extortion:
(1) A threat to do any unlawful injury to the person or property of the individual threatened or of any member of his family or of any other person held dear to him;
(2) A threat to accuse the individual threatened or any member of his family or any other person held dear to him of any crime;
(3) A threat to expose or impute any deformity or disgrace to the individual threatened or to any member of his family or to any other person held dear to him;
(4) A threat to expose any secret affecting the individual threatened or any member of his family or any other person held dear to him;
(5) A threat to do any other harm.
Whoever commits the crime of extortion shall be imprisoned at hard labor for not less than one nor more than fifteen years.
Any cop will tell you this is civil and should be handled accordingly.
