It takes some time for pools to show your hashrate.

Regarding profitability spikes ther are two things:
- coins with low volume might look like very profitable but the market can maybe only absorb a few satoshis worth of coins before the price drops significantly;
- about difficulty and difficulty jumps, you should only trust what you see in your wallet with getmininginfo.

A lot of people use the same sites that tell you what to mine so you and a lot of people are jumping on the most profitable coin results in kicking the difficulty high therefore reducing the profitability.

I don't use miningpoolhub but on the site it seems the currently mined coin is Dogecoindark which doesn't seem to be the most profitable and if you click on it you can see that the last block was found over 2 days ago and that the hashrate for that coin is almost zero so the values are skewed.

If you don't like a pool you can just use another one, there are plenty of them.
