    What kind of 301 redirection are you talking about? 301 redirections can be done for ensuring that your site is always accessed with 'www' or always accessed without www. It can also be used if you move from one URL structure to another URL structure. Or if you change your domain name..

    Which scenario are you talking about here?

    a 301 redirect is to tell search engines that the content from page xyz as "moved permanently" to page abc
