The rules for preserving battery life vary with the brand. Check the web site of the laptop's maker for their instructions on how to charge the battery. Some need regualr discharges, others are harmed by that process. So check the directions for the brand you are using.
The average life expectency of any battery - no matter how it is treated - is about 2 years. After that, there is nothing you can do to extend it life.
