    I just created a site called "AdPatron", but I'm not good with graphics / design. Any font recommendations to use for the logo?

    Arial is a good screen font.

    For graphic or web designers, Futura and Garamond are mostly used.

    I think you can use walkway,myriad pro,century gothic. They always look professional.

    It depends on the feel of your site. There are some good lists on the web for "web 2.0 fonts" and even there you can choose between clean and sharp fonts or fun and rounded fonts. You may also choose to go old school and use a serif font like Bank Gothic or Times New Roman which I've seen used in many logos (finance and banking sorts).

    Assess the message you want your site to give. Fun. Serious. Been around a long time. Young and fresh. Corporate. Edgy. Etc.. and then search for fonts with those attributes. A text only logo can be very powerful if done with your business messge in mind.
