Should the person who initiates the conversation be the one trying hard to keep it going? Or should it be the guys job? Should both try equally to keep it going?

I think that's no ones JOB. A conversation will start and carry, or will not. We had enough posts about people that met and had nothing to say to each others.
Start with a general topic that is easy to carry by both parties. That's the beginning and an "ice breaker", after that you will know...

Here's a general topic for you... her... her... and more HER! Her eyes, her hair, her smile, her whatever. As long as it's about... HER! What else does she care about? Oh yeah... the way I feel about... HER! Even if she wants to know about me, it's only because she's trying to decide if my interests will fascinate... HER! And, because I want nothing more than HER, I give the situation what it calls for.

In my past...I've learned that females feel like if they get too many compliments, then the guy is trying too hard. Though maybe I'm just giving them the wrong compliments.

Actually it goes for any person.
It's an old time sales tactic. People love to talk about themselves, it usually pulls people out of their shells, helps to 'endear" yourself to others.

Psychology 101, really.
I can actually hear people talk about themselves all day. The thing is I don't like talking about myself.
Its not so much the "conversation"... I think the best thing a guy could do is listen to what the girl says and seem interested... If I was dating, I would ask open-ended questions so that the girl could talk more... so that she feel like I really wanted to get to know her (the girl usually likes to talk more as well)...
