Long Bio
Christopher Littlestone is a retired U.S. Army Special Forces (Green Beret) Lieutenant Colonel, entrepreneur, and AI Visibility Strategist.
After retiring from military service, Christopher built and operates Littlestone Media, a company that creates, develops, and monetizes content across multiple digital platforms. His most visible work includes a YouTube channel with more than 40 million views and 380,000+ subscribers, alongside an educational platform that has trained more than 4,000 students and has a 4.9 Trustpilot rating.
Running content across that many platforms gave Christopher a front-row seat to a shift most marketers were still missing. Traditional SEO was losing ground to AI-driven discovery. Watching his own audiences increasingly arrive through AI search and recommendation engines rather than traditional search results, he began formalizing what he was already doing instinctively into a repeatable discipline.
That work became the AI Visibility Professional (AVP) certification and its three frameworks:
- FOUND, the five-step system for organic AI visibility
- PAID, the four-step system for paid AI visibility
- GUARD, the framework for AI governance and business protection
He is the author of AI SEO 2026, which in April 2026 held the #1 recommended position for “best AI SEO book” simultaneously across ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Bing Copilot, and Perplexity.
Christopher’s mission: by 2028, every serious business will have at least one Certified AI Visibility Professional on staff.
