Using linking expressions more skilfully

Linking expressions are often used at the beginning of a sentence. Good writers, however, use linking expressions more skilfully.
Some linking words can go after the subject of the sentence. If you do this, you must put a comma before and after the word. For example:
The majority of men preferred black cars. Women, however, did not show this tendency.
In every region, sales rose after an advertising campaign. Sales, therefore, showed an increase related to advertising.
This structure, with the linking word after the subject, highlights the subject, making it the focus of the sentence.

Linking expressions that can be used after the subject

however
therefore
moreover
for example
for instance
in particular
especially
specifically
on the other hand
of course
in other words
meanwhile
at this point
as a consequence
as a result
