After you buy your domain when is the next time you have to pay and how long does it last you? Or is just one payment?

it depends you can buy one for a year then re-register it for years to come or you can buy for a few years upfront (it costs the same amount for each year unless of course the company you buy it off changes their prices)

Depends on the company holding it.  I have seen monthly through one time per multi-year payments.

Like £1 to £50 a year, if no one's registered it prior. Domains can sell for thousands privately, though.

$10-15 a month or for a year? does the price stay the same if the site gets bigger?

Per year. Domain prices are not based upon popularity. They're based on registration fee and a profit margin. So it's fixed. It'll be hosting that gets more expensive as your site gets bigger.

You could pay for hosting yearly, but it's a bad idea if you decide you don't want your site anymore.
