I can ask the router to block sites based on keywords. I have told it

Then asking Google to search "bittorrent" results in a message:

However I don't know how one logs onto bittorrent? Assuming they have
to address it by name that would impede them.

I think you are working backwards.
Close all ports and then open only the ones you need. Web and email and
then go from there. As you find issues, then you open the necessary
ports. Example, ftp.
Then if something doesn't work, they will have to come to you and find
the issue.
On my router, I can open and close ports based on time so I could open
certain ports after suzie and johnny are in bed.
