Text links are always better for every aspect of websites because they are easily crawled by the search engines but this do not happens with Image or graphical links. So it is better to put text on the page rather on with images. And if you are willing to use graphical links than use ALT Attribute to describe the image with title. It is a common mistake to put website address, contact name, phone numbers in the image but it must be on somewhere on the webpage so that your information easily crawled by the search engines and thus receiving the benefits for your website. Thanks.

Right @kritika singh text links are best but some people likes graphical links as they looks preety much better in look and feel. They are better too if alt tag is used.

"Try to use text instead of images to display important names, content, or links. The Google crawler doesn't recognize text contained in images. If you must use images for textual content, consider using the ALT attribute to include a few words of descriptive text."

Text is better than images for SEO, pagespeed, mobile, your webserver and accessibility.

You want to go with contextual links. Image links are usually quite weak. As the others said, Text is better

Text links are better than image links for SEO. Google search engine understands text link better than the image links. the google crawl does not recognize the text contained in the images.

Text links are the best choice for SEO because text links are easier for search engines crawl and spread the link juice around. Image links are much harder to crawl in comparison and if it not done properly, it can be a huge problem for the website owner. That said, image links should not be actively avoided, adding the alt attribute for images is a good way to optimize them.

Link text is, quite simply, the words on a webpage that are conjointly a link to a different page.

Googlebot doesn't read image text But Googlebot read all text it's better to post your link in text not image.
