Samuel said "However, if you have a case where you're not putting text
inside the link - maybe it's an image, or an icon you want to work like a
link, you can use aria.

<a href="#" aria-label="Read our menu"> ... </a>"

There are many ways to place an image, but in the case of a linked inline
image, you can leverage the required alt attribute:
<a><img src="path/to" alt="My Profile" /></a>

...you could use a similar technique with a linked SVG and the SVG's title
element.
