You pay yearly. I pay around �9.00 per year for a .com name. They remind me at the same time each year and deduct the money from my credit card.

So long as it's registered in your name and you cough up anually it stays yours.
Quicksilver is correct however it depends which name you register as different countires are responsible for allocating names etc. So if you register a co.uk it's done for 2 years not one.

You can of course pay in advance and secure it on a long term basis which generally gives a good discount.
