Hi Juga, Google pays Mozilla to be the featured search provider in new installations, but you can change to one of the other built-in providers, such as Bing or DuckDuckGo, or choose a different one. Check out the following article for more information:

If you have trouble getting Firefox to use your site of choice for searches, let us know which one it is and hopefully we can help you set it up.
