In 2007, Habrahabr received two nominations in the ROTOR contest (Russian: РОТОР), which awards prizes to Russian-language web projects.
The first section, titled "zahabrennye" (in Russian, "захабренные"), broadcasts entries that have received high approval from users of the website.
The second section, called "othabrennye" (in Russian, "отхабренные"), contains habratopiki that have received disapproval by users of the Habr platform.
Topic-specific blogs, which go by the name "Haby" (the plural form of the Russian adaptation of the word "hub"), include sections devoted to programming, IT security, DIY projects, self-care, popular science, open source software, vintage hardware, game development, transportation, programming language-specific threads, and others.
Habr's corporate blogs are authored by companies that include Google, Yandex, Intel, Microsoft, Samsung, and ABBYY, among others.
