have also been vs have been also

Both "have also been" and "have been also" are correct, but they are used in different contexts. "Have also been" is the more common and natural word order in English. It is used to emphasize the additional action or state. On the other hand, "have been also" is only used occasionally, so it may sound awkward in some contexts.
