How to use the Transition Report

This article gives an in-depth look at the Transition Report and how to use it: [The Transition Report](https://prowritingaid.com/art/340/How-to-use...-The-Transition-Report.aspx)

Transition words are the road signs in writing—they help your reader move smoothly between ideas. Transitions like “similarly”, “nevertheless”, “in order to”, or “as a result” help you show your readers how separate points go together to support your larger idea. They illustrate agreement, contrast or show cause and effect.

One in every four sentences (25%) should contain a transition. If your transition score is less than 25%, you should consider adding more road signs.
