 possesses and conclude with a personal opinion. On the one hand, purchasing

 via social media can bring plenty of advantages to both

 and retailers.
First
 of all, many
people
 decide to use
this
method
 for its convenience.
For instance
, if a person decides to use the traditional way of shopping, they will go to the brick-and-mortar store, look for suitable
products
 among the shelves, and purchase them,
thus
 it will take them a lot of effort and time in order to find the goods that meet their expectation.
This
 is entirely opposite to online shopping, which not only provides a wide range of items but
also
 allows
customers
 to shop from virtually anywhere.
Secondly
, reviews and the price of
products
 are available for buyers to consult before deciding to purchase any object.
This
 helps them to compare between retailers to decide which one they should choose to minimize their expense.
On the other hand
, despite the benefits that

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
