What Countries Block Our Sites?

Interesting article. I have a free arab gay forum site that is blocked in the UAE and I'm always wondering if there is something I can do to give people overthere the possibility to visit my site anyway, I know they want to. A proxy is an option but not everyone knows how to use proxies and they're usually also slow. The other day I was asking myself if a mirror site would be an option but I wouldn't know how to let people know about the mirror url. It can be promoted of course, but that would take time before people would know about the new url. And I don't know how long it would take before the UAE would block that one too. Anyone here who has experience with dealing with a matter like this? I wouldn't take big riscs over this, I'm just curious if there are any options at all and what others do to bypass the problem.

Appearantly they don't just block any gay site 'cause I have another site with a similair theme and set-up that isn't blocked. That site is however less populair so perhaps the UAE only blocks the more 'famous' sites?
