Community First Bank

Community First Bank has been operating in Central Oregon for more than 25 years. The region over the last couple years has been going through a huge economic boom, and as a result many national banks have opened branches and increased their presence in the area.

Think globally, act locally.

Faced with stiff competition from the big guys, Community First Bank has emerged as a hometown hero, operating exclusively in Central Oregon and reinvesting 100 percent of their local deposits back into the community. In expanding and adding new branches across the region, Community First Bank has chosen to flex its muscles as a local, homegrown presence.

To reflect their dedication to Central Oregon, Community First Bank had Alpine rebuild their aging website with the goal of reinforcing their localized flavor. In broadcasting local news and announcing local events, the new website lets Community First Bank communicate with their regional visitors on a much more personal level.

Keep it friendly, online and offline.

Alpine worked extensively with Community First Bank to ensure that the new website made it simple for visitors to find the services, offerings and information they needed. The site needed to be clean and easy to digest, while still keeping a warm, homegrown heart. Community First Bank wanted it to be as easy as possible for people to contact them with any questions.

Finally, to make browsing the site as painless as possible, Alpine put considerable thought into the website search tool to make sure it always returned the best and most relevant results.
