hello hariiyer,
to block particular sites i´d use the proxy server squid with addition squidGuard.
in the squidguard.conf you can configure domains/urls/expressions you want to block.

install squid (if its not running by default) and squidguard, then edit the following line in squid.conf:

redirect_program /usr/local/bin/squidGuard -c /etc/squid/squidguard.conf

to activate squidguard.
under /var/spool/squidGuard/db/blacklist/ are the db-files with the restrictions.
hope this helps
