  I have two blogs. Both of them are similar, but the newer one contains much more. Why the older one gets far more visits?
  The blogs are at:
  The older: http://inglesconcanciones.wordpress.com/
  The newer: http://refuerzatuingles.wordpress.com/

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  New blogs have zero google juice. Old, established blogs are well-known and rank in search engines.

  Surely Google deems the new blog a duplicate of the old one.

  Thank you.

  Only if the new blog IS a duplicate of the old one. In either case, google rank is not transferred to a different blog, regardless of the contents. Google attaches rank to the URL. Change the URL, start over from zero.

  Sorry. I meant “Surely Google deems the new blog a copy (in part) of the old one”. (Because it really is that. ;P )

  It does, but not to your advantage, as I already explained.
