There is many reason behind this..
1. Heath Ledger worked on the terrifying costume himself, the iconic extra lipstick smile that no other Villain can ever replicate. It didn't have the fancy and clean makeup the Old Joker had. The New Joker's face paint was patchy and his clothes looked ancient. But that's what really added to making him feel more Real.
2.
HE HAS THE BEST DIALOGUES EVER WRITTEN FOR A VILLAIN. Though the Joker is a psychopath, some of the things he says are undeniably true. What's more, some of just can't help agreeing with the Joker.
4.And beyond this, it was because Heath Ledger was an absolute Genius at being the Joker. In fact not many of us know that the Hospital scene from the Dark Knight, where Joker taps the remote and looks at the building before it explodes was improvised! The building was supposed to explode in the background like it does when a lot of superheroes walk toward the camera but the Explosives malfunctioned. Heath Ledger stayed in character, though the explosion failed and the result was a masterpiece :
5.So that's obviously why Joker remains the best Supervillain in modern history.
Edit: One more reason why the Joker is a Supervillain no one can forget is this question that stumps Geniuses:

The Joker didn't have any Agenda to follow, he didn't Plan revenge for some childhood mishap or some crazy reason like that. The Joker did what he did because he liked it, and though he's incredibly destructive, he does all of it for "fun", for the simple reason that it gave him pleasure. That makes him so unique amongst villains that we just can't help loving the guy.

Edit: One more reason why the Joker is a Supervillain no one can forget is this question that stumps Geniuses:
The Joker Understands the Batman on an Emotional and Personal level. He gets into his mind and toys around with Batman's darkest secrets. On the whole Joker doesn't mind getting killed in the process. In fact, he WANTS to be killed by the Batman. He's a villain who has placed his Mission before his Life, swearing to test the Hero to the very limits and beyond and that's what truly makes the Joker the most Kickass Villain of them all.
