Any way to get blog traffic sources without an analytics view?

Nowhere in the blog set up process does HubSpot mention anything about an analytics view, so we set up a blog in March but didn't have any traffic source data until we finally realized we needed an analytics view in October. Since it's a COVID related blog, that's not good as we missed out on traffic data from the peak times of the pandemic.

 

Is there any way to get traffic source data for a blog for the time before we created an analytics view?

Hi @sspinolaNG 

 

Unfortunately, I don't think it is possible. If you switch to 'pages' you can see blog specific data for all time, but it isn't broken down by source, and indeed analytics views do not back date. 

 

Would be great if a blog analytic view was created as default.
