You can add this custom html helper method : public static class CustomHtmlHelepers { public static IHtmlString ImageActionLink( this HtmlHelper htmlHelper string linkText string action string controller object routeValues object htmlAttributes string imageSrc) { var urlHelper = new UrlHelper(htmlHelper.ViewContext.RequestContext); var img = new TagBuilder( img ); img.Attributes.Add( src  VirtualPathUtility.ToAbsolute(imageSrc)); var anchor = new TagBuilder( a ) { InnerHtml = img.ToString(TagRenderMode.SelfClosing) }; anchor.Attributes[ href ] = urlHelper.Action(action controller routeValues); anchor.MergeAttributes( new RouteValueDictionary(htmlAttributes)); return MvcHtmlString.Create(anchor.ToString()); } } and in View you can use it this way: @Html.ImageActionLink( Link Display Text  Index  Home  null  null  ~/images/untitled.png )
