In my google webmaster account, there is an option to "fetch a url as googlebot". When I do this for -http://www.cosmeticcompare.com/forums, I get the following output: shown below. Can anyone help me please and explain why it is showing the 301 redirect? Obviously I don't want this as I want googlebot to index the content on the page.
This is how Googlebot fetched the page.
