I had a south facing wall that the paint peeled off every two years. It got expensive so we removed all the paint and sealed the wood instead with a stained sealer. That solved our problem! As Jason T said, the less you pay for paint or sealer, the less it lasts generally.
Hope that helps!

You will need to check with a paint store because it will depend on what you are painting and how you are going to apply the paint.
