My Apache server is located in a farm that is blocking an entire country for the sakes of 'security' and avoiding an hacking attack. I'm trying to bypass this block, and would like help in doing so.

What I've thought of is creating a proxy with a different IP that will transfer all the traffic to my current Apache server that is being blocked.

Can someone point out direction on what is the best way to do this along with implications I should be aware of? Is there maybe a service that provides such a solution without actually needing to find myself another server that will redirect the requests?

There is service and it is called an CDN (Content Delivery Network). I personally use and recommend Cloudflare as its fast and free to some extent. The implication is that any server based programs detect the IP of the visitor as the IP of the CDN unless you make some changes. This would also help in better site speed.

I you want to set up a reverse proxy, use varnish. Read more about it here. If you provide your server configuration, I may be able to provide link to a tutorial or two.
