Hey, welcome to end game! It is quite overwhelming at first, but you'll get used to it quickly, promise. 
Honestly one of my favourite things when I first hit 50 was starting the Crystal Tower quest line. 24-man raid, as someone who's never played an MMO before, was so coolÂ
 It's a neat way to get some i80 pieces and soldiery to go towards i100 gear. It unlocks in Mor Donah I believe, and can be done at i55.
The A Relic Reborn quest will get you a decent i80-90 weapon which should get you through many lower ilv post-50 dungeons.
It's good to slowly begin working on any alt classes for cross-class abilities too. If you're a healer, getting THM to lv 26 for swiftcast is a priority. d:
For me, the goal was to unlock all the things and work up the current average ilevel at the time. A good goal might be to get to i100, which means you'll be able to do all content (except Final Coil which is currently the hardest content in the game so we can ignore that atm lol) comfortably.
I'm not sure if things are the same now, but the route I went was.. an i50 weapon first from my selected GC, and bought some accessories from the marketboard to get my ilv up to i55. And then went through the dungeons I could access to get gear to unlock more dungeons.
A dungeon list is here (http://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Dungeons) with where to unlock each one and what level you need to be at to enter.
To be honest you could probably skip a few of those steps now as it's easier to get higher ilv gear, but I'm not sure how to go about it. Hopefully someone will come in and share! I know there are many kind folk on here who are willing to help kit fresh 50s out in i90 gear, or you could buy some yourself off the MB but it's quite expensive! It would save time gearing up though.
I hope this made sense! I am here if you'd like to run anything together. I need practice healing, or have Monk which about to hit level 50, so will be running things for gear regardless.Â
Edit: I'm so sorry I just read this back and it's a rambled mess but I'm so tired I can't figure out how to make it neater ;-;
