I'm developing a social networking website for a small network. I would like to keep more security on registration process. I would like to keep some verification methods like SMS, Visa and Paypal (if i can have) etc. so please suggest what I can use. The site is developed using Joomla.
What are the types of verification which can be used for a social networking website?

I do this by invitation only. Since the sites are non-commercial, having to know me or know someone I trust to get access works quite well.If you have a commercial intent, then using a paid membership model along with limited rights until certain user levels are reached (much like se works) should work fine for you. Even having users pay a $1 a month for membership will keep out spammers and most other riff-raff.
