Site Administrators
Have control over a site and its subsites and can:
  • delete the site
  • add or delete subsites
  • change the settings
  • view, add, delete, or change all content within the site or subsites
  • add and remove users
  • send invitations
Site Collection Administrators
Have full administrative rights to all sites and content within a site collection. In addition to having all the rights of the Site Administrator they can:
  • add and remove users from the Site Collection Users
  • modify User Information throughout the site collection. For instance, can change the e-mail or display name of a user throughout the site collection
Site Collection Owners (and Secondary Owners)
When you create a site collection, Windows SharePoint Services automatically lists you as the site collection owner. You can change the site collection owner via the Manage Site Collection Owners page in Central Administration or by using the site owner operation with Stsadm.exe. Site collection owners and secondary owners are also site collection administrators. In addition to those permissions they also:
  • receive e-mail notifications for events, such as the pending automatic deletion of inactive sites
  • receive requests for access from users who have been denied access
