Hi,
I need to fetch shop website from shop name. Is that possible in c#? Is there any API for this?

Regards,

No.

There is no direct correlation between a shop or a company or an individual and any web site(s) they may or may not have.
There is no list of owner / website that you can search by owner either - and the name of a shop may have nothing at all to do with the name of the company running it and owning the website anyway.

For example, a Shop could be called "Bumpies" - maternity wear perhaps - but Bumpies.com could be related to a road speed hump manufacturer because they got there first, and the shop it's might be owned by a company called MJLister and Sons Ltd because it was registered in the name of the owner herself. The website for the shop (if it has one) could be Bumpies-Tummies.co.uk because that is all they could find available when they finally got round to setting up a web site.

Not without doing what google does - take photos of everything, OCR the pictures to find names and scan (nearly) every website in existance to feed into their search engine.

Might take you a few years to produce that...
...or you could use google! :laugh:
