How did simplifying the user journey drive uplift in case studies?

I once worked on a small e-commerce site where checkout was way too complex. After we cut down the steps and made it clearer, sales noticeably went up. Have you seen similar results from simplifying the user journey in any projects you've been part of?

I had a similar case when redesigning a subscription service flow. Initially, users had to click through multiple confusing screens, and most dropped off halfway. We switched to a single-page setup with clearer CTAs and fewer choices. That move boosted conversions dramatically. If you're curious, there are plenty of examples in https://conversionrate.store/case-studies/ showing how even small tweaks in the journey make a huge difference. For me, it proved how people prefer simplicity over endless options, and how guiding them step-by-step can stop frustration. This principle worked well beyond one project and seems pretty universal.

What I find interesting is how often businesses underestimate the small details in user paths. A cleaner design or removing just one extra decision point can influence behavior more than a big marketing campaign. I've seen platforms improve retention just by restructuring how users progress from onboarding to the first action. It's not always about adding new features—sometimes it's removing noise and letting the path feel natural that makes the experience stick.
