Well, to be honest with the exception of the Supernovas with bounties higher than 200 million (i.e. Kid, Law, Drake, Hawkins, someone else I probably forgot) I think the rest of the Supernovas have either been forced to join Yonkou or other strong pirate groups to survive in the New World or have bit the dust. Seriously, fing Apoo had trouble with some boars. . . Bonney got owned before the time skip even happened. . . Urouge. . . well, he really just doesn't seem all that strong, same with Capone Bege. The successful Supernovas are undoubtably blooming just like the Straw Hats are now, but couldn't be considered part of the "strongest".

Ignoring the Supernovas, the order is pretty obvious in my opinion.

Shank's Crew: Well, duh!

Blackbeard's Crew: The main antagonists have got to be ungodly strong. They already were before the time skip and have undoubtably toughed up even more in the New World.

Other Yonkou: They are the best of the best, that's why they're one of the four great powers!

Straw Hats: Really, there's no significant others except those I already mentioned.

Supernovas: Because with the exception of Kid's crew, all of the Supernovas crew members are just plain weak. One strong person won't get you so far against multiple strong people, after all.
