    Which is better? Well I am no expert but I would say that both have advantages and disadvantages but there is no good reason to only put one on your site!

    it depends on your niche and design I suppose

    arcade websites works better with images but others content rich websites works better with text IMO

    I think that visitors prefer to click on link ads than on banners

    NEVER use image ads. NEVER EVER. NOT EVER. They underperform AND they annoy your users a lot more. :)

    The results would be better using text ads, based on my experience.

    I think it depends a lot on the placement of the ads. Personally I do not like intrusive image ads, they make the content less visible. For an image ad my ideal placement would be right bottom corner, above the fold; or somewhere in the middle of the page, right or left. For other places, I would stick to text ads.
