Wordpress outranking blogspot
A month back, I created a free blog on blogspot. However, out of curiosity, 1 week later, I created a similar blog, with same subdomain name on wordpress just to check how they both rank on Google.
The Blogspot one already contained a couple of blog posts, but not the wordpress; I had started configuring it, but then stopped midway because I had other urgent things to take care (but i hadnt given up on the idea).
2 weeks later, that is, right now, the wordpress blog, which has no proper blog posts has outranked my blogspot blog. I read around that blogspot usually ranked better than wordpress, but wordpress was great for its amazing plug-ins. These results, however, show otherwise.
I'll be grateful if someone could shed some light on the matter.
Thanks.

I don't think the plug-ins have anything to do in this case. The wordpress blog was blank, except for the first "hello world default post" and no plugins were installed either.
