How do I prevent unwanted breaks in texts/headlines?

Depending on your screen size, it may happen that you see unwanted breaks in words (especially long ones), for example in headlines. There is a simple way to make sure words break only where and how you want them to: HTML entities.

  —> Non-breaking Space: Prevents breaking between two words.
